What if the biggest thing standing between you and your next level of success isn't strategy — it's subconscious programming?In this episode, I sit down with Suzanne Longstreet, Master Coach, NLP Trainer, Master Hypnotherapist, and creator of the Quantum YOU Activation, to explore how hidden beliefs, emotional patterns, and nervous system responses can influence every area of our lives and businesses.Suzanne shares how past experiences shape our current decisions, why traditional mindset work often falls short, and how deeper subconscious rewiring can create lasting transformation. We talk about visibility, confidence, self-worth, money blocks, and the surprising ways our brains try to keep us "safe" by repeating familiar patterns.We also discuss how intuition becomes stronger when we clear emotional clutter, why resistance often appears right before growth, and what becomes possible when we stop operating from survival mode.This conversation is a powerful reminder that the external results we want often begin with internal healing.Connect with Suzanne:- Website: https://www.successandclarity.com/- LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/suzanneglongstreet/https://www.linkedin.com/company/success-&-clarity- Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/successandclarityhttps://www.instagram.com/suzanneglongstreet/- Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/successandclarity- YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@suzannelongstreet1174If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone who's ready for their next level of growth!

The power of words has become extremely important to my marketing and to the journey of becoming a business owner over the past few years.  I have my minor in Writing, Rhetoric, and Technical Communication, and in college, I learned a lot about words and how they can yield certain energies,especially in marketing. The more I got into running my own business, the more I found this to be true. I am by no means perfect when it comes to using words, and I still find myself questioning and stumbling in certain areas today. However, I can say that the impact of creating safety with words and making my clients and team feel heard has been a valuable skill, allowing me to build a business that can hopefully make an impact for my team and my clients.  This week, I am looking forward to uncovering the power of words. So tell me, what is your Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

When you think about outsourcing or hiring a team, what feelings come up for you? Maybe you have a team already, or you're working to get to a point where a team is necessary. for what you do. Either way, in my own experience hiring and expanding my team. brought up a lot for me. I thought about releasing control, finding the correct words to outsource, sharing more about me and my moments of imperfection, and owning them. It all seemed really scary and a bit far-fetched.

Recently, I started reading a book called Zero Limits. Shout out to @aoifemindbodycoaching for sharing this book with me!  I was shocked at how much this book caused me to jump into action. I have been using the Ho'oponopono since she shared this tool with me a while back, but I hadn’t read about the power behind this tool since this book. @drjoevitale shares many different stories about this prayer’s power inside his book. This week on The End in Mind, I will be sharing a bit more about what I have learned so far. But let’s start out first by understanding the meaning of this prayer- what is the intention?  Ho'oponopono (Ho Oh Pono Pono), roughly translated as “to make right”, “to correct,” is an ancient transformational and healing technique originating in Hawaii. Its simple message of 100% responsibility, repentance, and gratitude has been changing the lives of all it touches. Pretty powerful right?  Learn more about your ad choices.

How is energetics playing a role in your business?  Do you ever feel like you are just gaining momentum and all of the sudden, something happens? Your energy is drained and you find yourself back in freeze mode? This is exactly how your energy may be impacting your consistency, your presence with your clients, and even throwing you into a situation where you are negatively driving your clients or potential clients away.  When we say everything is energy - it’s important to note that we are actually creating or utilizing energy in certain ways, which may be intentional or unintentional.  Join me today inside the @wearecocreated June 18th at 2 PM EST for our next Vulnerable Networking Meet up: Vulnerable Networking: Energetics and Conversions, where we ask if your energy repels you from reaching your goals.

This week we are chatting with Mind Coach @guineveremartin. We discussed her journey from the solitude of isolation to developing her business. Many would assume that living a Monk’s lifestyle would be more challenging than launching a business; however, Guinevere shares the complete opposite actually on our upcoming podcast episode. She shares that starting a business was one of her biggest mirrors into areas of herself that she was overlooking. As most of us know now, when designing a brand, those areas need to be nurtured in order for us to reach our full potential.  What is one area of your business that you would like to nurture more? Is it a belief? A pattern? A thought loop, maybe?  www.guineveremartin.com Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week, we are chatting with @life.coach.lawyer, owner of the @sunshinelawfirm and the @maddhippie11 brand!  Maddison and I met through the @badass_womeninbusiness group. From the second I met her, I knew I had to get to know her more! We hit it off immediately, and we decided to do a podcast interview together. Ironically, weeks leading up to our interview, Maddison’s Reel about Non-Compete Agreements went viral, getting over 1 Million views.  If you’re an esthetician, as I know many of you are, you are probably pretty aware of what a non-compete agreement is. Well, the news about this is shocking, and could totally change the game of esthetics. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week we are chatting all things energy with @justinechartier_! Sometimes we don't realize how much we are holding on to, and most of the time these are the things holding us back from becoming the people we want to be!  Justine is a nurse who has spent most of her life caring for others, and as she continued her work, she saw how much energetics could be playing into people's sickness or misaligned feelings. What if our thoughts sometimes aren't even our own? What if they’re inherited? What if some of these feelings weren’t from our lifetime but our ancestors’? About This Week's Guest: Justine started her battle with migraines around the age of 15 and struggled with them for over 18 years. When pregnant with her first child at the age of 19 she pursued a career in nursing. When her second daughter was 18 months old she was diagnosed with a rare disease - Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic arthritis. After 2 years of lots of doctor visits, tests and medications, she has been in remission and doing well.  However Justine's migraines and symptoms kept getting worse to the point of having attacks 2-3x/week along with visual changes, dizziness, heart palpitations, panic attacks and depression. She was introduced to the concept of trapped energy and trapped emotions from my friend and it just opened up this whole new way of looking at the world, her body, her connections to people and the way I can heal and help myself. She was finally able to break free from my migraine symptoms, speak the truths she could never before to those close to her and maintain her boundaries. She has become a huge advocate for patient safety in the hospitals and want to bring a change to the health care system.
